Shopping online is now the trend of the entire planet Earth (No idea if the inhabitants of other planets also follow that). And in INDIA we have seen a Herculean growth in the E-commerce sector within the last few last years. It also given a new aspect of employment to the country and a lot of sectors have grown accordingly under the shade of the enormous tree of online shopping. But i am not here to talk about how is it beneficial for you or what are the risks you can face while shopping online. I am here to share my thoughts what I feel about it and how we should use the online platform to get the best bang for our bucks.
AWARENESS:- Surprised with the first point??? Don't worry let me explain first. Basically awareness about your location is very important. You must be aware of the place you are living at. We must have an idea what type of products are available in the local market and at what price. In this way we can get the best quality product at the best price. To make it simple lets take an example. Suppose a person living in Meerut wants to buy a good cricket bat. And if you will research a bit on the internet you will come to know that Meerut has numerous manufacturers of cricket bats and other related products. So, here it makes no sense for the person to buy a cricket bat from an E-commerce site. Similarly if wants to buy silk sarees at a very competitive price, then going online will the best option for him. This is because he can get the silk sarees directly from the wholesalers of South India at the best possible rates. In this case the person will not only get high quality product but also get it at a very reasonable price.
COMPARISON:- It is also very important aspect of the entire process. And as a consumer this is one of the most powerful tool to get the best value of your hard earned money. You must always compare a single product on different online portals and at the offline stores as well. Also, you must check the competitors of the similar product at a given price range. Nowadays, we have very popular plugins for our web browsers which provide these services. You can check their price history and compare them at a single platform. There are a number of plugins available which you can easily install for free and make your shopping experience more enjoyable.
YOUR NEED:- You must know your needs and requirements. Also, you must be able to distinguish between your needs and wishes. If you don't need for a product, then it doesn't matter what discount you are getting on that particular product. Most of the online portals launch their sales at different periods of the calendar. They provide a variety of products at good prices. But it doesn't mean at all that we really need that.
CREATING A WISHLIST:- Wishlist is a very good tool provided by most of the online portals which not only benefits the customer but also helps the e-commerce sites to provide you with most relevant products on your homepage. Whenever searching or scrolling down the products, always remember to add the products in the wishlist which you are really interested in and may purchase later. This will help you prepare your own customized mini store where you will have less but most relevant options and thus you can make a better choice. Also, when a particular sale is being announced, just check your wishlist first and check the deals available on them. It will also help you buy the product in which you are most interested.
